  1. First major snowfall I have noticed for the season. Not sure if it'll hang about to begin creating a base for the Colorado resorts whilst in the Canadian Prairies the temps could hit a high of 90F mark including major cities like Calgary, AB, Regina SK and possible Saskatoon! Look: http://www.accuweath...ler=0&article=1 Wednesday could see near record-tying high temperatures for Calgary, AB??? Surely a maximum temp of 33°C - (92°F) for autumn is quite remarkable now surely if not unheard of? - See below: Both AccuWeather and CBC Calgary weather forecasts the same temps as seen below! http://www.cbc.ca/ca...r/s0000047.html http://www.worldweat.../056/c00622.htm I do remember last year Banff and Canmore had already experienced sub-zero temps with frost and snow by this time!
  2. This and its edited graphic satellite map made me laugh - is it due to El Nino? http://www.accuweath...ler=0&article=7
  3. Did anyone see that documentry of "snow - exploring the magic behind snow" BBC2 - very interesting and informative with images of 1963 - Apparently we can call it a white Christmas even if it is a single flake of snow falling even if it melts and hits the ground according to Susan Powell.
  4. So you think the term "Winter Storm" was used correctly and appropriately last night even though some areas saw no snow, yet last week when we had up to a foot of snow and the term "heavy snow" was used, when in fact that was more snow back then?
  5. More wintry weather on the way and staying cold according to the Met Office: UK Outlook for Saturday 14 Feb 2009 to Monday 23 Feb 2009: The outlook for this period is for the fairly cold weather to continue. There will be more in the way of dry and fine weather around than we have seen lately, with some hard night time frosts, but also some reasonable spells of sunshine by day. Wintry showers are also likely however, particularly in northern and eastern areas of the country, though nowhere is immune. This means there is a risk of sleet and snow almost anywhere. Later in the period, there are indications that the weather may turn more unsettled, but remain cold. This indicates that the probability of snowfall will increase, and again all areas are at risk, but northern and eastern areas are perhaps the most prone. Updated: 1203 on Mon 9 Feb 2009
  6. From a low of 1C earlier with sleet and wet snow the temp has now risen to 2.5C - What is going on???! :lol:
  7. heavy rain here at 1.9C and we had snow at 5.7C next week. I do not get this. is it due to the dew points or inversion?
  8. light rain now but temperature falling to 1.9C I do not get this - we had sleet earlier at 4C!!
  9. Rain with sleet here at 3.7C Dartmoor still looks like an Alpine ski Village: http://www.dartcom.co.uk/dartcam/dartcam.j...e=1234199386000
  10. Matt - We have heavy rain with occasional sleet and the temp is now 3.8C! What is the temperature there Matt? DARTMOOR still keeps its snowfall as seen below: http://www.dartcom.co.uk/index.php?pageID=7 Are there any live webcams for Exmoor?
  11. Rain now becoming sleety in some parts with the temperature falling to 3.9C - still a few snow patches left! Whats it like else where in Devon and Somerset? What is it like up on Exmoor? DARTMOOR still keeps its snowfall as seen below: http://www.dartcom.co.uk/index.php?pageID=7 Are there any live webcams for Exmoor?
  12. Heavy rain here and it is only 9:15am. Could we see a thundersnow event tonight? I think that the so called "Winter Storm has arrived earlier than anticipated. We have had heavy rain now since 0600am. I also believe that there has been rain in Wales and the Midlands which wasn't meant to arrive until 3pm. This rain should melt the snow. I guess things in life happen for a reason, in the way that the rain will do it's best to melt the snow before more comes down. Here is the Met Office weather warning: UK regions: 60% East of England 60% Wales 60% South West England 60% London & South East England Heavy Rain 1500 Mon 9 2359 Mon 9 Outbreaks of rain will be persistent and at times heavy. Accumulations of 25 to 35mm are expected. Combining this with melting snow, this may lead to localised flooding. Issued at: 1225 Sun 8 Feb UK regions: 60% East of England 60% Wales 60% South West England 60% West Midlands 60% London & South East England 60% East Midlands Drifting Snow & Heavy Snow 1800 Mon 9 2359 Mon 9 Rain turning to snow in many places will give accumulations of 5 to 10cm generally and 15 to 20cm over hills. Some drifting is possible in the strong easterly winds. Issued at: 1150 Sun 8 Feb
  13. Heavy rain with occasional sleet mixed in 4C Meanwhgile the snow continues falling in Dartmoor as seen below. http://www.dartcom.co.uk/index.php?pageID=7
  14. Matt - Just looking at the amount of snow in Dartmoor which looks impressive http://www.dartcom.co.uk/index.php?pageID=7 The weather has been strange today - We had snowflakes falling at 5.2C earlier followed by rain with sleet with the odd flake and now the temperature has fallen to 3.8C with fine drizzle!
